          JENKINS
   Fanny Emma Waters was born at Watson, New York,
October 7 1847. She united with the Episcopal church
when quite young. After coming to Coffey county, 
there being no Episcopal church where she could
attend, she united with the M. E. church, of which
she was a member until her death.
   She was married to P. F. Jenkins at Northfield,
Minn., in 1863. They moved in 1879 to Kansas, where
she lived, except a few months that she lived in
Kansas City, Mo.
   She came back to Kansas last November to spend
the winter months with her daughter, Mrs. George
Naylor, at whose home she died at 11 o'clock the
night of March 21, 1905.
   She was the mother of nine children of whom
seven survive. Mrs. Jaggers, Mrs. Naylor, Frank
Jenkins and Mrs. John Mozingo, live in Coffey
couonty and Woodson counties. The three younger
children, Ella, Annie and Herman Jenkins, live in
Kansas City, Mo. All of them were with her at the
end.
   She was a member of the Eastern Star, Triple Tie
and Relief Corps of Burlington.
   She was always a loving and kind wife and mother,
and lived a Christian life to the end, and although
a sufferer for years, it was endured with  patience.
Her last thoughts were of others. She was ready and
willing  togo. A few days before she died she
called the children and grandchildren to her bedside,
and for each one she had a parting work of counsel
and love.
   While she has gone to be with loved ones, there
is an aching void in the hearts that are left that
nothing can ever fill.
   The funeral was held Thursday afternoon from the
M. E. church in charge of Rev. I. R. Prugh of the 
Presbyterian church, who acted in the absence of
Rev. A. S. Freed. The beautiful burial service of
the Eastern Star was used. A male quartet furnished
the music.
